bokashi 's review for:

Planet of Exile by Ursula K. Le Guin
4.0

Beginning with challenging cross-cultural communications and misunderstandings from cultural value differences and ending with that sense of belonging that Le Guin writes so well. A beautiful story.

As an early LeGuin novel, she is pushing some boundaries (inter-racial romance), but not others (traditional gender roles dominate, apparently in both cultures).
